The effects of snake venoms depend on all of the components of that venom. However, the lethal effects are usually related to the most potent toxins found within the venom; the two most toxic proteins found in snake venom are neuro- and cardiotoxins. This article reviews a variety of neurotoxins found in snake venom. The range of neurotoxins present in snake venom is varied and includes: peripheral and noncentral, presynaptic, postsynaptic, potassium-channel inhibiting, muscarinic transmission inhibiting, and anticholinesterase types. }, number={1-2}, journal={CHIMIA}, author={Tu, Anthony T.}, year={1998}, month={Feb.}, pages={56} }
